Thanks for your reply, Adam.

The bug has been filed.

I don't want to labour the point about my asking the list first, but I 
think many users of the various distros must be as cheesed off as I 
am, reading postings on lists, which boil down to:

"I am having a problem with program XYZ. There are several thousand of 
you using it without having any problems whatever. Although I am the 
only one, it can't possibly be anything I am doing wrong. It must be 
a major bug in the program which needs fixing immediately!"

Cheers
